The place smells abombado. The calamari looks like pig anus. And tasted fake. So we sent it back and THEY STILL CHARGED US FOR IT. The entrees were good enough but after combating a smell in the bathrooms, killing two gnats and being served what look like rinds - it’s a no for me.

I like Lily’s restaurant, and the food is good. I’ve been there more than four times with my family, but each visit has given me a reason not to return. They overcharge for drinks without informing customers. I ordered a mojito and was asked to choose a flavor—only to find out that doing so increased the price from $18 to $21. If you ask for water, they bring a bottle of distilled water and charge over $12 for it. To make matters worse, they add a 4% fee unless you pay in cash. They promote supporting Black-owned businesses, but their excessive charges and additional fees make it frustrating. The service is also very slow, and they don’t provide bread or anything on the table. Avoid this place until they address these issues.

I was craving for simple Thai food and nothing had to be unique, so I decided to place an order for delivery from Lily Thai restaurant.
- Thai Fried Rice with Pork, White Rice: I actually impressed with this dish because the rice cooked perfectly not too soggy and taste better than my expectation. 9/10 - Yum Koong Grilled Shrimp: shrimp was too dried 6/10 - Pad Thai Shrimp: as I don't have a high hope on Pad Thai in US as long as it is not too sweet, I'm ok. 7/10
In my opinion, this place is good if you want to have delivery order. I walk my dog by the restaurant often and doesn't seem to be a special place to sit and eat. I love fancy place but sometimes I want something simple too so this restaurant will be in my easy and simple list.

awful. i knew ordering thai in Wburg was a risk, but this place was just a fail. I asked for my pad thai to be spicy and it was extremely bland and somewhat sweet. stingy on the protein. they did deliver fast, so there’s that. never again. i just need to get in an uber and go to queens.

Delicious food and super chill atmosphere! We ordered the duck spring rolls, calamari, and skirt steak. Everything came out timely and cooked to perfection. The prices are very reasonable. The wait staff was very nice, attentive, and unobtrusive.

So, my wife is gone on a work trip for a week and I decided it would be fun to try every Thai restaurant every night for 7 days. I’m on the 6th day (Lilly was night 3). I got red curry chicken with spring rolls and a Thai iced coffee from every place. Although the delivery guy smashed my coffee and lost half of it, Lily is in the top 2 without a doubt.

They must not change their oil often. I ordered beef and it tasted like fish. Also the rice had a weird tortilla taste to it.
I came during lunch and it was empty but the server wasn’t very friendly.
If all the other Thai restaurants are closed or too busy then this should be your last resort. The calamari is a bit rubbery and the seasoning on it was not the best . The grilled shrimp is good it has this smokey charness about it. I wanted the red curry spicy and boy it was spicy. But honestly it was not one of the best Thai restaurants I have been too I tried it but I don't think I would be back.

Both my friend and I had a wonderful early dinner experience here, I feel super cozy after eating. The red curry was perfectly spiced—not too hot or too mild, and the chicken was super soft and tender and blended well with the rest of the smooth broth and hearty vegetables. The chicken satay is to die for, it was perfectly spiced and pairs beautifully with the cucumber and peanut sauces. Our waiter was extremely nice and patient with us and provided us with a delightful experience. I would go here again!

Cheap lunch special but noticeably worse quality than other options in the area.

It's a really peaceful place. Even the playlist is really chill. I liked the food, the price and the portions.
